Micro-EDM technology (or the manufacture of miniature parts is used to make a micro hole. Two electrode shaping methods, mechanical electrode grinding and WEDG technique, have been studied. In this study, an electrode shaping method by using previously machined hole is introduced in order to obtain an optimal hole-making condition. Key factors such as applied voltage, capacitance, feedrate, and hole-dimension have an influence on the fabricating error of electrode shaping, which are taper ratio of a hole, electrode form accuracy, and electrode surface. Therefore, we try to investigate the optimal fabricating of electrode shaping from various experiments. Results from experiments, it was able to minimize the electrode fabricating error as voltage increases, and also applied feedrate and capacitance decreases.

We manufactured a micro CPL by LlGA process, a new conceptual ultra-fine and precise forming method, using X-ray lithography process. We fabricated a BN X-ray mask having properties of good X-ray transmittance and large mechanical strength. Micro CPL was manufactured by dividing into an upper plate and a low plate. Each of plates was bonded by Ag paste screen printing. The upper plate was fabricated on glass wafer to observe flow and phase transformation of cooling solution. The lower plate was manufactured by Cu electroplating for good heat transmission. Precision of inner Parts, micro pin and micro channel, of manufactured micro CPL is under ${\pm}2{\mu}m$.

The needs for precision machining of micro to milli parts have been increased as the industry require high quality products, especially for the micro-machining of IT products. The ultra-precision machining system is essential for the micro machining of fine structures, which insures machining accuracy, low systematic and random error and repeatability. In this study, we developed micro machining system, which is equipped with air bearing stage for ultra precision machining and also we present the results of V-grooving experiments, conducted by the developed system, to verify the performance of system. The results show that the machined V-grooving had good accuracy with repeatable stability.

As the progress of new industrial products or parts technology, the precise and fine machining technologies are needed more and more. Micro fabrication technology of these products are usally consisted of mechanical machining or MEMS technology. Direct machining by mechanical method is not applicable to mass production. MEMS technology also has several problems such as low mechanical strength, bad surface roughness and difficulty of 3 dimensional machining. In this study, we introduce several micro fabrication technology to make micro molds and dies and our project to develop these machining technology.

Ultraprecision machining and MEMS technology have been taken more and more important position in machining of microparts. Micro endmilling is one of the prominent technology that has wide spectrum of application field ranging from macro parts to micro products. Also, the method of micro-grooving using micro endmilling is used widely owing to many merit, but has problems of precision and quality of products due to tool wear and tool fracture. This investigation deals with state monitoring using acoustic emission(AE) signal in the micro-grooving. Characteristic evaluation of AE raw signal, AE hit and frequency analysis for state monitoring is also presented in the paper.

In this paper, the development process of an unique and creative micro/nano-structure fabrication technique based on micro/nano-tribology are reviewed and discussed. The so-called Mechano-Chemical Process(MCP), which has been developed since 1995 by Tribology Research Laboratory at Yonsei University with the motivation to overcome the demerits of the conventional photolithographic techniques, is based on the fundamental understanding of the interaction between the tool tip and the workpiece surface. This process is a maskless process which offers tremendous flexibility in surface patterns that can be created on a workpiece surface without using any capital intensive equipment. It Is capable of fabricating the prototypes of micro/nano-components, micro- structured surface with various geometries, micro-molds for making polymer or metal parts, and micro-fluidic channels for lab-on-a- chip

A ceramic glass mold was developed for micro hot-embossing and replicated polymer parts are fabricated. The glass-ceramic micro mold could be fabricated with a laser process and a wet etching process and the fabrication time could be saved a lot. Various polymer micro structures can be obtained by hot-embossing. The process parameters such as ho-embossing temperatures or pressures were investigated and optimized. This process can be applied for fabrication of micro structures for flip-chips or micro fluidic channels for bio-engineering. The advantages and disadvantages of this process are discussed, too.

Recently, the manufacturer of microscopic structures along with the development of technology to produce electronics, communication and semiconductors allows various components to be smaller in size, with higher precision. Therefore, preoccupancy of micro/nano-level machining technology in order to product micro/nano-components and parts is key issue in the field of manufacturing. In this study, machinability of micro machining was studied through the machining of aluminum, brass and steel workpiece. Inspection of the cutting force variation patterns of large numbers of micro machining indicated that characteristics of the workpiece. Surface roughness prediction methods were developed by considering the variation of the static part of the feed direction cutting force. The accuracy of the proposed approaches were tested with experimental data and the agreement between the predictions and actual observations are addressed.

Micro forming is a suited technology to manufacture very small metallic parts(several $mm{\sim}{\mu}m$). In this study, the micro forming property was studied, using Al5083 superplastic alloy with micro grain, suitable for the micro forming process and Zr-BMG amorphous with pseudo-superplastic phenomena in the supercooled liquid state. Micro forming experiments under stastic load status showed that distortion by slip and spin of the grain system and slip inside the grain was observed in the Al5083 superplastic alloy. In case of Zr-BMG, because there is no grain, the distribution of the forming property was similar to the load distribution between punch and metal.
